Take a first look at Claudia Winkleman’s newest hosting role after quitting Strictly Come Dancing.

On Friday (27 February), the BBC released a teaser for the 54-year-old’s upcoming chat show The Claudia Winkleman Show.

In the 30-second clip, Winkleman can be seen spreading bright orange paint on her face, in reference to her trademark tanned look. “It’s just still not orange enough,” she said in reference to the paint.

The first episode will air on 13 March and Winkleman will be joined by Jeff Goldblum, Vanessa Williams, Jennifer Saunders and Tom Allen.
